New York: Dorchester Publishers - A Leisure Book, 1991. First Edition . Mass Market. Near Fine. 416 Pages. This is the September 1991 First Edition. "I leave the court soon." Gavin knew he was broaching the subject awkwardly, but then none of the phrases that had come to his mind seemed polished. Rhea felt her pulse take on a discordant rhythm. There were surely several witty things she could have spoken at that moment, but she could think of none of them. All would have revealed to Gavin MacAmlaid how greatly she feared she would miss him even though his presence had caused her much pain. She chanced a glance upward into the hard set of his features and found him watching her. Gavin delighted in the sad tilt of her lips. She was not indifferent. He longed to place his hands upon her waist and draw her near, but he dared not. Almost, he could feel the warmth of her against his calloused palms. "I shall not be stopped," he said, knowing it was all he could promise at this point.… Read More

The author lays no claim as a writer, but only a fair country… Read More

Tooth of Time, 1982. 4th Printing. Soft cover. Very Good. Gorman, R.C.. Book is clean with a square, tight binding. Book has minor wear on the edges that is difficult to see in the scans, including some fading to spine area. INTRODUCTION Luci Tapahonso's poetry is both powerful and extraordinarily gentle. At the heart of her best work is an abiding love for commonplace ecstasies, and for the humour that shines through our most mundane and aggravating vicissitudes. What a relief to welcome the sympathy and control of this modern poet! No doubt Luci would be content in life simply to be... well. content--hanging out the laundry on windy days, daydreaming while sheep graze, or nuzzling a newborn infant. Yet her Navajo culture has suffered years of economic, political, and social outrages, which still exist: hence always, beneath the tender images of her life, prowl all the dark monsters of a confused and a racist society. Occasionally, these monsters surface in her clean, unfancy lines with a… Read More
